Peckham Peckham Secondary School for Girls  

Hello from New Zealand. I was at Peckham Secondary School for Girls in the 1950s. The school was divided into three separate houses in in three buildings -
Rye House, Sumner House and Denmark House. I wa at Rye House. Miss M. D. Clarke was Head, with three assistant heads for each house. I loved that school. I was Delia Wellington, my 'best friend' was Valerie Beere. Staff I remember are Mrs. Mutch, Mrs. Hepplewhite,Miss Wade, Mrs. Gascoigne, Miss Barrett, Miss Cooper. I have lived in New Zealand since I was 18, and own a 16 acre stag property in the ranges south-west of Whangarei (in the North Island's sub-tropical Northland province). I would dearly love to get in touch with Valerie Beere and any other girls who were in Miss Cooper's form during the early 1950s. Contact  Mail-me  please.

Peckham Anyone work for Evan Cooks in the 50s?  

I am trying to put together something special for a dear but frail old friend of mine and have been tracing the name of old employees at his workplace Evan Cooks around 1952 - in particular at their garage which was 72 Queens Road, Peckham SE London. One name eludes me, I understand he may have been the manager and was named 'Jack'. I'm told he lived in Morden but cannot find his surname. If any of your readers have information, memories or photos they can share I would be so pleased.
Many thanks.

Peckham King Arthur Street, SE14  

Hi
Does anyone remember King Arthur Street, SE14 or indeed lived there as I did.
It consisted of terraced houses, which were knocked down to be replaced by flats, and apparently they changed the name of the street.
Thank you

Peckham  

Hello.
I used to attend Friern School for girls opposite Peckham Rye Park. I had some happy times there. My mother sent me there as she didn't want me to attend Peckham Comprehensive (where all my mates went). She persuaded me with tales of how I would attend horseriding classes at the school and Sailing classes.
During my time there I never saw a boat or a horse.
My headmistress was Miss Pringle and my maths teacher Miss Coin. We had some interesting 'conversations'. It seems I got a little snooty about attending such a 'posh' school to the extent that my father threatened to take me to school in our neighbours (rag and bone man) horse and cart!
I attended about 1967/68 for 3 years.

Peckham  

Hi Gerald,

Yes// I remember the cow shed in Lugard road, one could buy milk there, product of all the cows that the farmer had.

My name is Denis Gardner and in 1940 I lived in Brayards Road and was at school in Peckham central Choumert Road, The school closed at the start of the war and the National fire brigade took over the building.

Before starting work at H.W.Sullivans ,Old Kent Road in January 1941, I was doing a paper round from a shop on the corner of Lugard Road when I was injured in an air raid in Caulfield Road on the 15th October 1940 and was an outpatient at St. Giles hospital till the 11th November, the hospital on that morning of the 15th was full of young girls from a food factory that had been hit in Camberwell.

In 1944 I joined the RAF.

Demobbed in December 1947 I worked at Stanley Coachworks in Queen street until I migrated to Australia in 1951.

my home for the past 58 years.

Peckham Peckham Cinemas  

we used to do most of our courting on Peckham Rye and One Treehill. Our Saturday night out was tyher cinema, be it The Tower, Tower Annexe, Odeon or Gaumont. Then to the fish & chips or Pie and Mash shop. Those were the days when 2/6 would buy all that inc the cinema.
Rye Lane was a mass of excitement Saturday evenings, alas we are told most of the big store sre gone _ Jones & Higgins, Holdrons, M&S, Sainsbury, Cater Bros, what have they got in their place?
Happy memories can you share them with us.

Peckham I remember Lew  

And seeing "The Bridge on the River Kwai" at the Tower Cinema; they had a perfect scale model of the bridge in the foyer. The whole place has changed a hell of a lot, it's still reasonably like things used to be in Nunhead, where I used to live.
I'd love to hear from anyone with memories of the 50s, 60s and 70s and who, perhaps, might remember me too. David Phillips from Lanbury Road and later Ivydale Road.
